Immortals, don't watch dramas

Chapter 2678 Undercurrent

"Master Zong, this..." The person who had originally followed the instructions of his superiors to get something was holding a heavy box and was unable to move forward or backward.

Li waved his hand, but took the palm-sized gilded box and held it in his hand, looking very cautious.

But after he took over this "hot potato", he didn't make any movement, which was far from his previous panicked look when he almost lost his composure and asked his subordinates to fetch things.

The young man was obviously well-trained. He seemed to be hesitant to say something, but in the end he did not cross the line of questioning.

But who is Li? He is a powerful person in the out-of-body stage who crawled out of the Su Yuan lineage and stood out among thousands of Li disciples and was called a "Zong". Naturally, he would not miss the subtle changes in the other party's expression.

He didn't even need to listen to what the young man said before calmly saying, "That's all. As for Jueming, I'll explain it to him in person when he comes."

The young man who answered the question was obviously relieved after hearing this. Of course he was relieved. God knows what kind of extreme experience he had gone through after receiving the order and running all the way back with the things under questioning from all sides. Even a Yuanying cultivator couldn't help but tremble in his heart at this moment.

It looked like the array base would not be blown up in the short term, but the things were retrieved, and everyone who should and shouldn't have been alarmed was alarmed. Another person was on his way, and the head teacher should have received the news by now, but it turned out to be a false alarm. The young man had a headache just thinking about the mess he would have to clean up later.

But the elder said he would "personally" "explain", which meant he was going to take over the mess. With this person in charge, there shouldn't be any problems. The young man breathed a sigh of relief and then obediently withdrew.

As for the "hot potato" that he risked his life to take, whoever wants to take it can take it. If it weren't for the necessary transfer process, he would have wanted to throw it away immediately. Now it is naturally a thousand times better to hand it over to Master Zong safely, which is safer than him holding it.

The young man who received the pardon retreated to the back without hesitation and no longer interfered with the game of the adults.

The young man who seemed to be just playing the role of an assistant was actually directly exposed to the forbidden items that had a crucial impact on the situation. It was impossible for him to step into the game without knowing anything.

He knew how much resources the higher-ups had put into this Origin Tracing Conference, or should we say, the "festival" under the guise of the Origin Tracing Conference, and they even forgot to take care of the reputation they had built up over the years.

Yes, how could it be possible? Once was an accident, twice might also be an accident, but if it happened three times, it is unlikely to be a pure accident.

Although the Su Yuan lineage seemed stupid enough in the eyes of many forces, having been guarding a tracing conference day after day for ten years, it seemed that they lacked the motivation to develop and grow themselves.

But this is all superficial. After all, passion and obsession alone cannot sustain a group of people gathering together year after year - there must be common interests.

Although many inexplicable accidents have occurred since the conference was held, in fact, they are all under control. It can even be said that the Su Yuan lineage has anticipated a relatively favorable direction.

As for the purpose of the people and forces that are involved in the muddy waters, they don't care, as long as they can achieve their goals. What does it matter whether this process is carried out by them personally?

If the Su Yuan lineage was not really kind and generous, they would not have gone to such great lengths to send out manpower and effort, and even used the Kunlun Remnant Formation that the Middle-earth Formation World was eager to obtain, just for the insignificant reputation among the world's major sects. And the gains must be much greater than what they lost, much more, which made the Su Yuan lineage, which had been hiding its light for thousands of years, show such an impatient and flawed side.

Li rubbed the palm-sized box but did not open it immediately. His eyes fell on the array base not far away.

All the grand masters who had been watching with their hands folded on the sidelines all took action and joined the game, without exception.

The worried accident did not happen, and the plan was completed faster than expected. To be honest, Li was a little surprised.

As for Cassia, he was already unhappy about being assigned to the outfield, and now he must be uneasy when he heard that something was wrong on his side. He didn't have time to deal with the willful guy, so he had to complete the task at hand first.

Li, who was particularly familiar with and had a deep understanding of the bad temper of his colleagues, thought without any pressure.

"Really? Why do they all suddenly seem so motivated? Just now, everyone seemed to be able to see through everything. Is this the composure of a great man?" Strike when the time is right.

"Ming Mo." Ning Xia pressed his friend's shoulder helplessly, signaling him to hold back. Although those big shots had no time to pay attention to the surrounding situation at this time, there were many people and eyes here. If some vengeful younger generation heard it, and his face was remembered, it was no joke.

It can be said that they are just laymen watching the fun. He Qing and Wen Ming, who are new to the art of formation, are so attracted by this rare explosive victory that they can't take their eyes away. Ning Xia would have wanted to keep his eyes glued to it if he wasn't worried about something else. Only Ming Mo's focus is completely different. Isn't he just a bystander watching the fun? !

Please, do you know that if the turbulence caused by the strange fire just now really gets out of control, all of their people might be affected.

As a holder of a different kind of flame, Ningxia is an extraordinary person who has almost integrated the Phoenix True Fire into her bloodline and refined it into a part of her true self. She is more sensitive to this kind of alienated energy and can "empathize" with it more than other cultivators who instinctively feel it is dangerous but are still half-believing and half-doubting and still talking nonsense.

She had experienced being penetrated by flames more than once, and even because of the unspeakable "fate" between her and the Phoenix, it was even closer. Not to mention losing control, even a slight overload would mean more real torment and pain. But at least the Phoenix True Fire still recognized her as its master, and no matter how aggressive it was, it would be careful not to damage her body at will.

But it is not the same for ordinary monks to tame strange fire. As mentioned before, for the vast majority of humans in this world, it is extremely risky to refine independent and alienated flame energy as a part of the body circulation. Even if there is a medium to help, there are risks at any time. After all, if this knife gets out of control, the first person it will target is its original owner.

Although her cultivation level was far inferior to that of the person who had performed the operation above, the other party was constantly drawing out the core strange fire. According to the cyclical rules of the cultivators' usual taming of strange fire, the uncontrolled extraction meant a collapse that could come at any time.

Ningxia had just sensed the abnormality of the opponent's output of the strange fire. She felt that this damn strange fire had completely broken free from the "reins" and was about to fall into an uncontrolled violent state. If it weren't for the huge suction force of the remaining formation and the defensive function of the formation base, it would probably be out of control and explode at both ends before Lin Yue could "put on" the connection again.

Those big guys up there are definitely not afraid of anything because of their high cultivation, but what about them below the formation base? !
